Hormones
Tired? Decreased libido? Thinning hair? Weight gain? Decreased strength? Irregular menstruation? Erectile Dysfunction? Mental fog? Depression? Anxiety? Hot flashes? Sleep disturbances?
You likely have a hormone imbalance.
Hormone Optimization is a delicate balancing act. When hormones are off balance, normal function is affected, which often leads to chronic symptoms, disorders and /or disease. Lifestyle, nutrition, exercise, environmental factors can impact that balance as well as overall health.
Men's Health
The natural decline in testosterone in men contributes to lack of motivation, decreased well-being, decreased sexual libido, lean muscle loss, prolonged muscle recovery, depression, and/or weight gain. Sometimes this is referred to as Andropause, the male menopause.
Excess stress, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, environmental factors can also attribute to lower testosterone even in younger men.

Women's Health
Unlike the general natural decline in testosterone for men, Perimenopause/Menopause can be like a roller coaster of symptoms for women. It's common to see hormone imbalances in women mid-late 30s depending on stress levels, diet, exercise, ovarian surgery, radiation or chemotherapy.
Some symptoms may start as irregular cycles, heavy or light periods, anxiety, insomnia, headaches, changes in menstrual cycle length. They may advance into hot flashes, night sweats, thinning hair, fatigue, depression, weight gain, sleep disturbances, loss of sexual libido, urinary disturbances, mood swings or irritability.
